PERALTA CASTILLO, Francisco Javier. Sustainability and transport from a hierarchical approach for the city of Mexicali, Baja California. Estud. demogr. urbanos [online]. 2020, vol.35, n.1, pp.215-242.  Epub 23-Abr-2020. ISSN 2448-6515.  https://doi.org/10.24201/edu.v35i1.1920.

The present work has as general objective to examine the principles of sustainability in the transportation system of the city of Mexicali, Baja California, from a hierarchical approach.

Transport as an activity involves the development of sustainable systems, including efficient energy, multimodal mobility systems, communication systems; especially, public transport involves fuels and clean vehicles (Zhang and Ferrari, 2013, p. 1).

The results show that sustainability principles in the city’s transportation system are not integrated: accessibility, mobility, urban planning, networks, among others.

Palabras llave : sustainable development; hierarchy; sustainable transport; transport system.
